In January, Nadia was labelled ‘inspirational’ for a short clip showing off her cellulite.

But the caption proved Nadia meant business as she told fans she was ‘unashamedly’ celebrating her flaws.

However, the TV star recently came under fire over a comment about her co-star Stacey Solomon.
Following Stacey’s pregnancy announcement in June, Nadia angered fans as she admitted she ‘already knew’.
At the time, one fan fumed: “Bore off Nadia! It’s Stacey’s wonderful news! Not everything is about you and the fact you already knew! You’re always trying to steal other people’s limelight… Congrats Stacey.”
Meanwhile, a second complained: “We get it, you knew before everyone else.”
